Only a limit they would allow you to get to before they sent the charges through to your card.
Oh....well we charge everything to our card anyway and then pay it off each month so we get the points. When we went to Disney in the fall I used our points to pay for all the charges we incurred while we were there and still had lots of points left over....granted we had already paid for dining plan, tickets and our room ahead of time.
 
I always just go ahead and pay my room charge with gift cards when I arrive so I'm not carrying a high authorization but I also have a small bank and the chase Disney Visa debit and I hate having all my cash tied up.

I also gave up credit cards a few years ago so that's the nature of my vacationing.
 
I don't remember seeing this posted on this thread - The Walt Disney Company has set its next shareholder meeting for March 7th, 2019 in St. Louis, Missouri
Hey, that's where I live!

Looks like the baby Giraffe was born earlier this afternoon:

Aw, love it!


Well now they are in line with every other hotel in the world!

We do the same. And we don't charge to our room. It's way way too easy to overspend for us. Disney gift cards all the way!
 

Alright, how spoilery is it? I really want to click on that.

Depends on how accurate they were. It pretty much describes the ride from start to finish though. I don't think there were any pictures we haven't already seen though.

Definitely touches on a lot more details - like when you see what animatronics, when you move different directions, etc

FYI, If you have a credit card that gives extra points for travel expenses, like the Chase Sapphire, it pays to charge everything back to your room. At least in my experience, everything charged to the room shows up as a hotel expense, which gets you 3x on Chase Sapphire Reserve. While gift shops and ticket booths only give you 1x.

Thanks...We did charge it to our room and then put it on our credit card at the end of the trip. Although our credit card is not travel specific.

Guess I’ll see how long I can hold out then. That’s the stuff I’d want to be surprised by more and I’ll definitely be there opening day at MGM so not too much longer.
 
The “incremental charges” with the “s” is a bit confusing and sounds like Disney overcoming motivating things. Why not just hold like $200/night (or vary it based on hotel level) plus any charges and call it a day?

Yeah, I don't have a problem if they want to hold $1000 on my card for charges. Just make it less confusing.
